minus-squaredingus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 months agoYeah it’s super easy to buy shit quickly online nowadays. Most you’d have to wait is a couple of days without the device you normally use. My phone spontaneously died several years ago and those few days without a phone were frustrating, but manageable. Got a new one pretty quickly.
